Inventory is stored in the cubes

[-] NounsAndWords@lemmy.world 165 points 6 days ago

This is one of those movies I will only learn about through memes.

[-] originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com 43 points 6 days ago

ive experienced this effect with the movie titanic

never seen it, know the entire plot through memes/parody

[-] circuitfarmer@lemmy.sdf.org 52 points 6 days ago

Titanic is actually worth a watch though. Whereas for Minecraft, I found even the teaser to be a challenge.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 19 points 6 days ago

Maybe I'm in a minority, but I thought Titanic was a bunch of melodramatic crap when there were more interesting true stories that the movie could have been about.

[-] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago

It has that annoying James Cammron thing where the working class gets blamed for the actions of the rich.

[-] circuitfarmer@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 6 days ago

That's fair. But it's worth watching even just for the effects and set work.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 12 points 6 days ago

I guess I'm one of those people who would rather watch a low-budget movie with a good story than a big-budget movie with a lot of spectacle but a bad story. But I do understand people going to see a movie just for the spectacle. I've done it before. I just usually regret it.

Minecraft just seems like the type of movie where lines like, "Were gonna rock our blocks off!" And that will be their peak writing.

[-] jballs@sh.itjust.works 10 points 6 days ago

I just watched the trailer. Jesus Christ that looks awful.

Titanic is fantastic. You watch the movie completely ready for the ship to crash. But at some point, your brain stops and you're more invested in the characters. Then boom, motherfucking iceberg.

True Lies, another James Cameron movie, does that twist too. Where you watch it for one thing, then surprise, you're now invested in another thing.

No you don't. You only know about flying and French girls. You don't know anything else about the rest of the movie.

[-] capuccino@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

Me with the entire Star Wars franchise, Harry Potter and The Lord of the rings

[-] chetradley@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

They're all corporate cash grabs now. Watch what you enjoy and don't let anyone tell you you're missing out on them.

I love the part where Steve says, “IT’S MININ’ TIME!”

[-] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 20 points 6 days ago

I was thinking about this recently. There's a lot of bad movies that come out every year since forever. Usually, they just kind of disappear and die.

But only thanks to social media have we had a way to mock the studio.

I'm just imagining the memes made of bad movies from the 2000s.

"Oof. Right in the blocks"

"What a load of absolute blocks"

"It's the dog's blocks"

Camera zoom into extreme closeup. "oh... blocks".

Yep, that's the one.

[-] scutiger@lemmy.world 27 points 6 days ago

Cubic warming is getting out of hand, I swear! I'm sweating my blocks off.

Only in the British version.

[-] Fedizen@lemmy.world 91 points 6 days ago

truly the low hanging fruit of a joke

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 32 points 6 days ago

Whoever wrote it should get the sack.

[-] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 20 points 6 days ago

Eh, don't get twisted up about it. They took a crack at it, that's what counts. Some times you have to feel around for the right joke.

[-] nandeEbisu@lemmy.world 15 points 6 days ago

Certainly nut the most creative joke

You guys are testiN my patience.

Everything in Minecraft is cubes so expect the cube humor. Testicles are particularly humorous so I have confidence in this prediction.

[-] shasta@lemm.ee 8 points 4 days ago

Sounds too close to pubes so they may say blocks instead

[-] wjrii@lemmy.world 41 points 6 days ago

I could go either way on this one. There's no great cache of lore to betray, and everybody already sort of plays Minecraft how they want. It actually could work as a fairly generic but charming Jumanji clone.

It could also suck donkey cubes. I'm just saying the licensed IP isn't really going to make or break this one.

[-] MsPenguinette@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago

The few bits of lore that exist are probably going to be fumbled. I really do hope they do just have herobrine in the background of some scene. The trailer looks like they are going all in on hoglins, which I'm completely meh on. Endermen are probably too scary for a little kid movie tho.

Dunno why people would criticize Black’s characters in film. I mean, that’s what he does. Same as Sandler, Ferrell, or any of the rest of the low hanging fruit, cringe, or bro-humor comedy actors. I wouldn’t go to a movie with Jack Black in it and expect Shawshank Redemption.

[-] criitz@reddthat.com 1 points 2 days ago

Jack Black was actually really great in a serious acting role in Bernie

[-] tzrlk@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

That being said, Sandler and Ferrell do some amazing serious stuff.

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

They can, absolutely. However it’s just not the norm.

[-] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Watch Bernie if you want to see Black do a different take. His character is quirky, but there's a lot of depth to him as well.

Naw, it'll just play a metal-hitting-metal sound effect, he'll brief make eye contact with the camera, give a little smirk, and the scene will continue with no further acknowledgement.

Probably a pixelation joke too for nudity that the kids won't get but the adults will.

[-] negativenull@lemmy.world 13 points 6 days ago

Look at the brass cubes on this guy!

[-] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 4 points 5 days ago

That would be the best joke of his career

[-] M0oP0o@mander.xyz 7 points 6 days ago

I think you are being too optimistic.......
